CITT BULLETIN.
THE AMERICAN BUTTON HOLE. AND
SEWING MACHINE COMPANY.—The build
ing at the corner of Washington avenue and
Twentieth street, Twenty-sixth Ward, for
merly occupied by the American Attila
ManufacturingiCompany, has recently been
fiat d up by a newly organized corporation,
called the American Button Hole and Sew
ing Machine Company, for the purpose of
making the American sewing maohine,with
button-bole attachment. There are also at
this establishment a machine for sewing
woven stockings, and also another for sew
ing carpets. These articles will soon be paned
in the market. The work performed by this
beautiful machinery is really .wonderful.
The establishment is not in full working
order, but everything to this effect will be ,
arranged in a short time. Yesterday after
soon a large number of gentlemen were
present by the special invitation of the Di
rectors of the Company. Massachusetts,
New York and other Eastern places were
pretty well represented. A sumptuous
banquet was spread in the upper story of
the works.
After the inspection of the works, Col.
Thomas Fitzgerald, having been
called to the chair, read the regular toasts,
which were responded to by gentlemen se
lected for the occasion. George J. Richard
son, 'Esq.;' the president of the company,
gave a brief though compreheneive history
of the establishment. The button-hole
making machine is . a great curiosity. It is
capable of stitching two button holes per
minute, the work being veryeven and beau
tiful. The machine for sewing stockings
is a wonderful pieceof mechanism, its work
being accomplished.without leaving a ridge
on the seam. The machine for sewing car
pets may really be, considered the wonder
of ihe age. One of them has been in use at
the establishment of the; Messrs. Orne, ou
Chestnut street above Ninth, for some time.
The machinery for producing these ma
chines is very extensive and costly. It is
estimated that the works will nroduce two
hundred machines per week. ft is the only
institution of tinftind in the city of Phila
delphia.
The several machines made by the com
pany are protected by eighteen different
patents, and their simplicity, the efficiency
of their operation, as well as the superiority
of the workmanship displayed in their con
struction, show that the highest order of
talent has been employed in perfecting
them. Some of the machines are so con
vertible, by means of a slight adjustment
of the mechanism that they can produce
several varieties of embroidering, binding
and sewing machine stitches; one machine
may thus be used for a number of pur
poses.
One of the most serviceable is the family
button-hole sewing machine; this is light
and extremely simple in its construction,
sew a neat and uniform binding over
the edge of the smallest button hole in the
finest linen in less than half a minute,whili,
the parts may be easily adjusted so r t o
makb an ordinary sewing stitch t
The carpet sewing - Maddne attracted
AniCh gii 3 ntiC.ll 4 Tills Machine is somewhat
larger than the button-hole machine, al
though in many respects similar to it in
construction.
A carriage which runs on rails in front of
the machine-stand holds the breadths of
carpet sothat their edges shall be penetrated
by ;the needle. The stitch made by the
machine is of such of a character that the
sections of carpet are mach more securely
!listened together than by the ordinary hand
stitch; in fact, the breadths will be held to
gether even where those portions of the
stitch at the underside of the carpet-are
worn away.
An exceedingly . valuable machine is one
for overstitching, intended mainly for sew
ing stockings, although it may be so ad
justed as to make the ordinary sewing
stitch. Many persons suppose that knitted
stockings are produced entire by the ma
chines which form the fabric. This is not
the case; the fabric doming from the ma
chine in breadths, and being afterwards cut
in sections, which are sewed together by
Land. The manual labor required to stitch
the sections together renders it difficult to
manufacture the stockings with the desired
rapidity, and greatly increases the cost of
the same ; many attempts have therefore
been made to substitute machine-work for
the hand-labor, but hitherto without sue-
The stocking stitching machine exhibited
by the Company has fully withstood every
test which could be applied to it. It is quite
small and like all the other machines it is
extremely simple and works with great
rapidity, while stockings sewed by it are
far superior in appearance to those finished
by hand. This machine was spoken of in
the highest terms by those acquainted with
those classes of , manufactures in which it
could be applied.
At the banquet addresses were made by
Idr. Davis, of Boston, Mr. Charles Camblos,
Mr. Joseph Miller, Mr. Casper Souder, Mr.
Francis Wells and others. Mr. Camblos
eulogized Pennsylvania eloquently. Mr,
Solider 'spoke of Philadelphia and her lead
ing position as a manufacturing city. He
alluded to the fact that most of the ma
chinery used in making the button-hole
machines had been built to
make breech-loading rifles. This reminded
him of turning swords into plough -shares
and spears into pruning hooks. Mr. Wella's
remarks were characteristically humorous,
and he, gave a number of capital puns on
sewing machines,
&e. His remarks were
greeted with great applause. Mr. Davis's
remarks were eulogistic of "The Press."
Altogether the affair was a very pleasant
pne.
We may add that the invention of the
principal machine on which the company
bases its success is the invention of Mr.
George Rehfuss. We must also not forget
that to the efforts of Mr. Henry. Jones, the
celebrated caterer, the splendid character of
the banquet was:due.
Tam GAS Irrvzsinciariox.—The • Select
Council Committee, appointed to investi
gate the management of the Philadelphia
Gas Works, met yesterday afternoon and
last evening, and examined several wit
nesses in reference to the quality of coal
used, its cost, er,e.. Mr. Charles Thompson
jones,'the President of the Board of Trus
tees was also examined, and during the in
vestigation he stated that the "loss by leak
age at the works in 1864 was 83,390,575 cubic
feet, less 1,654,800 furnished Sanitary Fair,
consumed in offtees, Ltd. The loss from the
same cause in 1865 was 112,179,849 cubic
feet. He also stated that the greatest loss
in any one year was when the greatest
amount of street main was laid. In 1863
the pipe laid amounted to 126,873 feet; in
1864 to 39,046, and in 1865 to 90,170. In 1864
there was made 794,676,000 cubic feet of
gas, and 85,211 tons of coal used. In 1865
the gas made amounted to 844,516,000 cubic
feet, and the cast of the coal carbonized in
1865 was $ll 40 per ton of 2,240 pounds.

[Par the Philadelphia Evening Ballerina?
Franklin Institute—Professor Illoiton"a
Second Lecture.
Mr. Editor: This time I was among the
number able to get into the lecture-room of
the Franklin Institute and witness
the experiments and hear the lecture
on Galvanism. By going half an hour
before the appointed time I procured a very
nice standing place in a corner of the build
ing behind the lecturer,And had a fine view
of the back of the lecturer and the audience.
Still the lecture was so clear, the explana
tions made everything so plain, and what
I could see of the experiments was so,novel
and beautiful that I was quite willing to
stand an hour and a quarter, and only sorry
to notice so many persons anxious to at
tend, turned away from the impossibility of
getting in. The side rooms used as labora
tories, the steps of the stairs behind the
table, every vacant space among the ap
•paratus—all were filled with attentive
hearers and eager gazers. And I felt that
after all my corner was not so bad a place,
considering.
I ioresume a full account of this lecture
will be given by some one more scientific
than myself, in which its details will be
presented to your readers. My own im
pressions are mainly of a very clear expo
sition of the nature of Electricity, Galvan
ism and Magnetism, and some exceedingly
beautiful experiments made with a power
ful Galvanic battery. No words of mine
can describe the effect of the Galvanic pile on
pieces of carbon and a globule or sliver ex
posed to the current. The wonderful light
—the beautiful colors which played around
the burning charcoal and glowing silver,
the wonderful dew-drops of the precious
metal which gathered thickly around the
carbon points, all presented a spectacle of
surpassing brilliancy and wonder.
To tell the truth, I rather congratulated
myself on my corner, for though inconve
nient, it was close to the screen, and ena
bled, me to see all the surpassing details of
these splendid experiments, many of which
must have been less clear to those who
were seated at the further end of the room.
Once more we would suggest to the direc
tors of the Franklin Institute, so long and
so justly regarded as the warmest patrons
of all true - science, that a larger lecture
room should be provided for the accommo
dation of the crowds who show their desire
to attend the popular lectures delivered by
its several professors and members.

has reached this city, and now adorns one
of the drawing-rooms of the Union t League.
No. 1711 SPETTOE STREET, RECLLADELREIA.,
Sept. 29th, 1866.— T. Gillingham Fell, Esq.,
President Union League, Philadelphia:
DEAR SlR—When recently in Lonslon, Mr.
James McHenry consigned to: my care a
superb bust of Richard Cobden, with the re
quest that I should, in his name, present'it
to the Union League of Philadelphia.
Mr. McHenry cherishes the' most agreea
ble memories of the attention which he and
his English friends received during their
brief stay in our city, last autumn, and as a
slight evidence of his regard, asks the League
to Accept the bust of the great English Libe
ral and friend of American Institutions.
I remain your obedientaervant,
LEWIS H. REDNER.
ITNioN LEAGUE HOUSE, Qotober 12, 1866.
—Tames McHenry, Esq.—DEAR SIB: I have;
been instructed by the Board of , Director&
of the Union League, of Philadelphia, 4 , 3
thank you on behalf of the League, for your:
tasteful liberality in,presenting our associa
tion with an admirably executed marble bust
e4d.tre great English Liberal, Richard Cob- ,
den, which was presented to us through Mr. i
Lewis H. Redner. Cobden's name is as"
widely known and as deeply reverenced int
America as though he bad been one of our:
own statesmen. Every American, who(
looks; into the sculptured face of Cobden,,
feels that he is looking into the face of , a;
friend ; and it , would not have been within'
the ability of any one to have presented us;
with a work of art for which'we could have
been more truly grateful than that which;
you have so generously bestowed. We shall ,
never forget how firmly Cobden advocatedi
the theories and the practices of our fortni
of National Government while we were:
testing their merits through 'a long and.
prosperous peace, nor how staunchly and'
hopefully he threw the powers of his
vast intelligence on our side, when
our popular institutions were endur-'
ing a trial of civil war that few
monarchies of Europe could successfully
'have resisted. One of our deepest sorrows
is, that the profound statesman whose
image you have set up amongst us did
not live to share our triumph, and to point
his prophetic finger at the fulfilment of his
memorable predictions
We have placed Cobden's bust - in the .
most frequented room of our house, where
it has been a centre of interest and venera
tion since the day of its arrival, and where
it Will continue so to be when time has
tinted,tknsi mellowed its n01)29 lines, and
removed the menial i! the main to that
historical distance, at which the whole
world will be able to take in the gigantic
proportions of his intellect and the lofty
height and purity of his moral nature.
You, particularly Sir Morton Peto and
your other English friends, have left behind
you many kindly feelings in the hearts of
our members, and many pleasant remem
brances of your brief visit to the League
House. Its doors will always stand open
to receive you, should you revisit America,
and there will be hundreds of hands within
the doors, to make you as welcome as
though you were passing the - threshold of
your own house.
With my best wishes for your continued
health and happiness.
I remain, dear sir,
Your obd't servant,
GEO. H. BORER, Secretary.

The time-piece is of the old English pattern,
generally known as the "bull-eye." The
case is of heavy silver, and the movement
is still in good running order. Indepen
